Dabangg Salman Khan will now send out a new message to his fans- Darr Ke Aage Jeet Hai - as the newly appointed brand ambassador of Mountain Dew soft drink.

'I love the high-action imagery of Mountain Dew and more importantly the fact that it's not mindless action but there is a message at its core Darr Ke Aage Jeet Hai.
